A	True
B	False
C	Either A or B
D	None of the above

Explanation:

Detailed explanation-1: -Pasteurization or pasteurisation is a process of food preservation in which packaged and non-packaged foods (such as milk and fruit juices) are treated with mild heat, usually to less than 100 °C (212 °F), to eliminate pathogens and extend shelf life.

Detailed explanation-2: -Pasteurization Question 10 Detailed Solution The correct answer is Pasteurization. Pasteurization is the processing method that involves heating foods at high temperatures for short periods in order to reduce the risk of food poisoning.

Detailed explanation-3: -In pasteurisation, milk is first heated to about 70 degrees Celsius for 15 to 30 seconds. Then it is suddenly chilled and stored. This prevents the growth of microbes. Pasteurisation deactivates the microbes and reduces the enzyme activity by reduction of temperature.

Detailed explanation-4: -Pasteurisation is the process of sterilisation of milk in which the milk is heated at high temperature, around 70 ℃ for 15 to 30 seconds and then it is suddenly chilled at 5 ℃ and stored.
